☕  Readers Write: Coffee Shops

Last week, we here at Hey Las Vegas listed our favorite coffee shops beyond downtown. Let’s see what you had to say!

(🆒 = I agree!)

Orlando S.: “Does anybody actually go to Gabi Cafe before writing about it? If you guys actually go there you would see how filthy the place is. It's caked in dust everywhere ... nobody cleans shit. Yet they serve food and drinks the entire time.”

Brian Plaster: “Yaw Farm Coffee Roaster — ranked No. 1 on Yelp in the country last year!”

🆒 Staci Wilson: “Sambalatte at Boca Park is fantastic. Great coffee, bites, and two-story atmosphere.”

Melissa: “I live in Boulder City, and I LOVE The Dam Roast House. It uses locally roasted coffee beans from the Colorado River Coffee Roasters, so I knock out two ‘locals’ in one visit!”
